I know these pictures look a bit small. I couldn't quite figure out how to enlarge them. Anyway, I drew the first two when I was twelve. The last one was drawn when I was about fourteen. I just thought it might be a good idea to post them here.

Hi there!

Wow, these are great! I love them. The shading and coloring is great.

Sketch #1: I like the stones. They are drawn really well and they're all the same size. The shading on the bricks behind the arm and smoke is good. It looks as if a shadow is cast upon them. The cauldron and smoke is realistic as well. The only criticism about this sketch is the sleeze on the arm. The arm is very realistic, but the sleeve seems a little see through. If you had made it a little darker than it would've looked better.

Sketch #2: Unlike the stones in the first sketch, the stones in this one look a little out of place. There seems to be space inbetween them which there shouldn't be. It's not that big of an issue, but I figured I would mention that. The shading in the window is great. I also like the person sitting against the other side of the building (that is a person, right?). It took me a while to find it, but I think it's quite mysterious.

Sketch #3: This drawing is very bright. Because of the brightness, I am immediatly drawn to the red and purple hair. I really like the colors you chose for the hair. I think you should've made her face and body a little darker.

I hope that this review helped! Keep drawing!

I love the first two. They are very charasmatic, and full of character, and ooze your own specific style. The bricks and the way you did the smoke was a neat trick. I wasn't as impressed with the portrait, because although it was good, it didn't ooze the special something the first two did. But that's probably just me. I appreciate charisma in art, :) It's all great though,

Hello there. :)

1st: It's really detailed and I love it. I'm more of a realistic person, so therefor I am not a fan of how you are shadowing your drawing, but I still think it's really well done. :)

2nd: The details again... I love how you've done the rocks and the window. Can't really say any constructive criticism. :(

3rd: This is well done again. Go figure. ;) But her eye brows bother me. They are not the same color as the hair, and that is a disturbing my eye. Normally, eyeborws are a shade darker then the hair color of a person. But in this case, the eyebrows are paler color then the hair. Anyways, this is a minor detail, but it couldhelp for the overall impression of the drawing. :)

Keep up the good work!

Well, the funny thing here is that the girl in the third drawing is supposed to be wearing a wig. I just like to jumble up things. Her real hair is the color of her eye brows actually so sorry for the confusion... :)

I like these actually i like most of your work :) i love the detail in the first two pictures very classic and you should stick to that kind of style it looks very perfessional and it is a new way of drawing. Your last drawing put me of, dont get me wrong its good but i was looking forward to seeing more of that other style but got a shock because your last picture clashed with the others although i will remeber these pictures for a while now ;) lol well done keep it up :D
